The Turaki faction is still trying to get GEJ to contest .

So all this rubbish is akin to putting the horse before the cart.

This is how a former governor in my state appointed my senior brother as a commissioner before he consulted my big bro.

My bro just told him, he never wanted any govt appointment in the first place and still doesn't need it .

My governor even sent people to take advertorials congratulating my bros for the appointment.

Bro just ignored them and continued with his life as a private citizen.

the company set to spend a fresh $10 billion on its 1.4 million barrels per day expansion drive, according to S&P Global.

all these to kill other new refineries wey dey come up.
but the lies under the previous NNPC management too much.
they sabotage their own refineries maintenance for this front refinery to emerge.

Abeg, drop that narrative. Dangote will continue to dominate and monopolize industries in Nigeria as long as a large portion of the country’s wealthy class consists of people with deep pockets with lazy brains and little appetite for productive risk.

Where do wealthy Nigerians invest their money?

First, there are those who pour capital into quick-return schemes that add little long-term value to the economy. They fund luxury real estate projects in Abuja and Lagos, or buy up vast expanse of undeveloped land from local communities only to resell them at a markup downstream to other new money buyers who partake in the illusion of wealth creation that dominates Nigeria’s real estate culture buying largely unproductive land and expecting its value to double within a year simply because everyone wishes it will. Every body is selling land and properties these days, find one poor community, steal their land or pay the chief peanuts and tell investors it is the next banana island.

Then there are those who flock to already saturated “safe” industries after seeing others profit from them. Hospitality, auto dealerships, import businesses, trading, poultry ( haew ) and similar ventures are overcrowded with capital chasing familiar opportunities. The latest craze is China Importation. These businesses may generate profits for their owners, but they rarely create the kind of innovation, industrial capacity, or global competitiveness that attracts significant foreign direct investment and grows the economy or technological capacity of the labor force.

Countries that achieve sustained economic growth are often driven by wealthy individuals willing to back bold ideas, startups, research, advanced manufacturing, technology, and other frontier ventures. Their capital expands the productive capacity of the economy.

In the south-south that has the oil everyone is drilling and refining, those it mean that there are no big men there or even big government thieves that can at least pool money together to build something they can say is their own and by their own people. They are waiting for outsiders to come and invest so they can do pipeline security for peanuts. BUA is planning to build a refinery in Akwa-Ibom while Akpabio is plotting to sleep with other people’s wives and NDDC chairmen are servicing their girlfriends and foreign investments. Tomorrow someone will say na our oyel money, keep fooling yourself. Since the days of Adam, ownership of anything is determined by who takes it not you had it.

In Nigeria, too much capital follows trends instead of creating them. Too many investors copy one another rather than funding the next generation of industries. Until that changes, it is unrealistic to expect a handful of industrialists not to dominate sectors where few others are willing to take meaningful risks.

Previously, a big basket of tomatoes was being sold for between N45,000 and N48,000, but it is presently being sold for between N85,000 and N90,000.

No one made money off black Africa like the Lebanese

Moblux:
NDC can't stop anyone from joining. It is also late for Omoagege to contest under NDC. I think so according to the electoral laws

Azazyel:
Another criminal has moved to NDC. This party would be no different from APC.

plessis:
The question is, who fooled amaechi into thinking he is good enough to be president?
Amaechi built railway in Niger Republic but built nothing in the south east.

God2man2again4:
Double decker buses is not a bad Idea

Kennitrust:
10.99m votes is an imaginary figure they want to use in 2027.

In 2027, it will be 20.99m votes

HisSexcellency:
So we have over 10million registered apc members.

Few days ago was the first time in my life I'm hearing if this Osifo man. E sure me say he didn't contribute a dime to this election process. Apc just needed someone to contest the primary with mr President, and this guy made himself available.

An unknown politician from obscurity was cleared by the committee to contest against Tinubu

F117nighthawk:
The most useless governor in Nigeria,his state of full of bad roads, ordinary repairs and maintenance is a big problem for him to fix,all he does is singing praises to tinubu,as if tinubu owns Nigeria.
The next thing they will say EDO no be Lagos,yet this failure be their governor

anonimi:
How many teachers have been employed by this progressive governor for the free education of all the children of the market people?

Has he employed up to the 19,500 that Makinde did

Tuggar polled 26,001 votes to finish second behind former Bauchi State governor, Mohammed Abubakar, who secured a commanding victory with 57,517 votes. Another aspirant, Bala Wunti, came third with 13,648 votes.

Egodollars:
Check the NNPC, it has more northerners and dangote is from the north! Nnpc was junketing around that they have products to sell!! Instead of complaining they should bring out theirs and let buyers decide, not all this noise. If it's left to NNPC we would have been buying it for over 3k per litre now in the wake of Iran war.
